About Me:

I am an Australian Postdoctoral Fellow working in Physics at the University of Sydney. I am primarily working on the PAVO beam combiners at the CHARA and SUSI arrays (and am always looking for honours/postgrad students!). My currrent position is a 4-year "75/25" position, which means that I'm classified as research-only but spend some of my time teaching. In second semester 2009, I'll be teaching COSC 1001/1901 and the third year astrophysics module. For astrophysics students - notes are on WebCT. I'm also running the Research Bites this year with Stuart Jackson. If you're interested, feel free to learn more about me and my recent history.
